f2fs: use meta inode for GC of COW file
In case of the COW file, new updates and GC writes are already separated to page caches of the atomic file and COW file. As some cases that use the meta inode for GC, there are some race issues between a foreground thread and GC thread. To handle them, we need to take care when to invalidate and wait writeback of GC pages in COW files as the case of using the meta inode. Also, a pointer from the COW inode to the original inode is required to check the state of original pages. For the former, we can solve the problem by using the meta inode for GC of COW files. Then let's get a page from the original inode in move_data_block when GCing the COW file to avoid race condition.
